On Monday, NPR climate correspondent Rebecca Hersher wrote an article further explaining her Morning Edition interview about the Trump administration's proposal to cut funding to the Orbiting Carbon Observatory. This incredibly expensive satellite program, designed to monitor climate change through carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, was touted as an essential part of the American…

The entertainment press found it very important to report that Hollywood thinks Trump is an authoritarian. This is still somehow considered “news.” Over 2,300 members of the Writers Guild felt compelled to speak out in an open letter because they believe in their “role in a healthy democracy.”

When it comes to NPR, Washington Post media reporter Scott Nover is a publicist, not a journalist. His interview with "bright-eyed" NPR CEO Katherine Maher was (to borrow from MASH) "bathed in the glow of utter servility." Maher claimed NPR is not "partisan," and has no "affinity for one party" over the other. How stupid do they think we are? 

The liberal media cannot help but cry over the law being upheld as Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrest and deport illegal immigrants across the country. On Thursday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe had a meltdown over the immigration detention center, Alligator Alcatraz, being “inhumane” for illegal immigrants. 

What did she think was going to happen? On Thursday’s CBS Mornings, South Africa-based senior foreign correspondent and raging anti-Israel partisan Debora Patta tried to embarrass U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee over America’s steadfast support for Israel (and lack thereof for “Palestine,” aka Hamas). In the portion shown, it started poorly for Patta from the get-go as she first…

A CNN This Morning segment hypes fears of the effect of Trump tariffs on back to school supplies. Host Audie Cornish suggests that people will be using buy now, pay later plans to pay for "pencils and crayons." Julie Margetta Morgan, president of the self-described "progressive" think tank, the Century Foundation, says that people should "be really worried" about that.

In 2021, the media were instantly lovestruck when Texas Democrats fled the state in order block an election integrity bill from passing. Today, many of those same Democrats are hunkered down in Chicago, in a vain attempt to prevent their state from being redistricted, and once again, the corporate media have rushed to their defense.

Last week, I examined the reaction to and the consequences of a possible indictment of former President Barack Obama over “Obamagate,” the false claim that “the intelligence community” concluded a) Russians interfered in the 2016 election (which is not in dispute), b) they did so to help elect candidate Donald Trump, and c) Trump “colluded” with the Russians to get elected.

Former Clinton strategist James Carville does a podcast with former Clinton cheerleading journalist Al Hunt, and on their Wednesday recording of Politicon's Politics War Room, they reacted to the redistricting battle currently going on in Texas. While Hunt claimed Republicans are “fighting dirty,” Carville gave the game away and claimed that in order “to save democracy,” Democrats…

It is becoming harder and harder for the media to ignore the Russiagate scandal. And that difficulty in journalism avoidance just became much more difficult with the announcement that Attorney General Pam Bondi has ordered a grand jury probe. NBC News used unnamed "former officials" to claim there's no evidence. Are the "former officials" Democrats? It's a very relevant question. 

Before politics overwhelmed the word, the primary meaning of "liberal" was "generous." President Donald Trump and the Republican Congress have given political liberals a chance to take that meaning back — by opening their wallets to show just how much they value NPR, PBS and other programs defunded by the GOP. There’s no shortage of cash on the left: Laurene Powell Jobs, the mega-rich backer…

In a Wednesday TikTok post that resembled the scribblings of a madman, “comedian” Rosie O’Donnell sought to warn her followers that her old haunt, ABC’s The View was about to be canceled because of their “liberal bias.” She proclaimed that it was another example of the “fascism” of “the orange messiah” (President Trump) trying to “silence” women with opinions, and invoked phrases used…

After departing The Washington Post, fact-checker Glenn Kessler did what seemingly every major journalist who has recently left a major outlet has done: he joined Substack. On Tuesday, Kessler took to his new platform to claim that he left the Post because publisher Will Lewis wanted to expand the paper’s audience to include Fox News watchers.

As Congressman Adriano Espaillat (D-NY) appeared as a guest on Sunday's The Weekend, MSNBC fill-in co-host Jason Johnson wondered what might be done to deter potential job applicants from answering Homeland Security's push to recruit more ICE agents.
